Hill Grove

Hill Grove is a house, now a residential home for the elderly, built around 1780 for John Ewing. It is constructed of colour-washed red brick and topped with black glazed pantiles, featuring a hipped roof with modillions at the eaves. The building has three bays and three storeys, with a two-storey integral outshut at the rear. The windows are flush sashes with glazing bars, and the openings decrease in height as they ascend, with the second floor windows being two panes high and featuring gauged flat arches.

The principal facade faces southwest and includes a central 19th-century porch that is rendered and has a flat roof with an entablature adorned with egg and dart mouldings. Each side of the porch has a narrow opening with a semi-circular head that contains a large sculptured shell, leading to a double-leaved door. The central 18th-century doorway features a four-panelled part-glazed door with a rectangular light above, which has glazing bars arranged in a fan design, some of which are decorative. The right return of the building has openings similar to those on the principal facade, but the second floor features a top-hinged casement window with glazing bars.

Inside, the house has panelled doors, a narrow open-well open string staircase with a ramped mahogany handrail, stick balusters, and a turned newel.
